What is Chiropractic Medicine?

 

Chiropractic is a health care discipline, which emphasizes the inherent recuperative power of the body to heal itself without the use of drugs or surgery. The practice of chiropractic focuses on the relationship between structure (primarily the spine) and function (as coordinated by the nervous system) and how that relationship affects the preservation and restoration of health.

 

Spinal Misalignment

When misalignments in the spine or other joints disrupt the nervous system, overall health can suffer. This interference may affect surrounding tissues and lead to injury or pain, often before symptoms are noticeable. Regular chiropractic check-ups can help detect and address these issues early to support optimal function and prevent further damage.

 

Bringing Back Balance

Doctors of Chiropractic (DCs) focus on restoring balance in the body by using hands-on spinal adjustments to support proper nervous and musculoskeletal function. As a fast-growing, widely accepted healthcare profession, chiropractic care is recognized for its safety and effectiveness and is covered by many insurance plans, including Medicare and Medicaid. Emphasizing overall wellness, chiropractors also address lifestyle factors such as nutrition, exercise, and stress, and collaborate with other healthcare providers to ensure comprehensive patient care.
